About 47.5 % support flying or even getting their own aircraft / license
About 51% don't support flying, almost 6% wish they would stop
Well, about 50:50 (slightly skewed to the negative side). they need to fly in a trike, where the bang for the buck is HIGH!!
I found “Royal Arch”, 175ft high with a span of 80 ft, ample clearance for a trike. On the other side of the ridge was a mini Monument Valley. It was too windy to explore today, but I plan to return and check it out in the future.
Children used to work much of this mine because the passageways were so small. I prefer to be high above ground ;) In fact this solidified that I don't want to be buried in the end, and get a good job, because some jobs can really really really suck
The engine install was the hardest part for me. Each measurement was crucial and...igns before I got one that would not either plant itself in a farmers field at altitude, or was interfering with the...
We left Gunnison and had to climb to high to cross the mountains to reach Saguache and the San Luis Valley. If was very cold, about 30F ambient temperature. Our goal was the heated pool at Hooper, Colorado. We just hoped it would be open when we landed so we could warm up.
We spent half the morning searching for 40 gallons of ethanol free fuel. Then the other half searching for ethanol !! ;)
David Coy tipped us off that a bottle of Scotch would pave our welcome on our first outback leg tomorrow to Bill's Ranch in Montana.
We spiraled down, burning off 5000 ft of altitude to reach the Creede Valley. Then flew past Wagon Wheel Gap and into the Goose Creek Valley, home of the 4UR ranch.
This is a vie...
We steadily climbed out of the valley to reach the top of the 12,500 ft mountain north of Creede, Garita Peak. From there we followed a high mountain ridge to the east.
This is a view back to the northwest to Garita Peak and the large park below the mountain.
